Standard Operating Procedure

Note: This page contains guidelines, much like the wiki page for space law, enforcement is up to players, not the staff team.

Alert procedures

Green

This is the standard alert level, nothing is going on and the station has yet to receive any credible threats, crew are allowed to engage in all activities and security can only arm themselves with gear that does not require a crime to get.

Central Command has authorized the use of industrial (Ripley and Clarke), medical (Odysseus) and basic security (Paddy) mech designs by designated departments.

Violet

A threat to crew health has been discovered, medical personnel are authorized to issue orders to non-medical crew, security may get involved if it is discovered that crew are intentionally spreading the threat or refusing treatment. It is advised that crew wear internals along with other PPE equipment to minimize exposure.

Orange

The stations structural integrity is at risk, engineer personnel are authorized to issue orders to non-engineer crew, security may get involved if it is discovered that crew are intentionally destroying the station. It is advised that crew avoid affected areas until engineers deem them safe.

Blue

There are signs of potential activity towards the health of crew or the station, crew are asked to stay vigilant and keep an eye out for anyone acting suspicious, if you see someone up to no good, you should report them to the nearest security officer.

Central Command has authorized the limited use of combat (Durand) mech designs by security and command departments if the situation requires it.

Red

The station is now in severe danger and could face potential destruction, crew members are expected to arm themselves and follow security and command orders as security attempt to neutralize the threat. Space law is to be ignored in order to fight the threat and crew failing to comply with security or fighting against them have their lives forfeit with executions allowed without prior consent.

Central Command has granted authorization to all mech designs, including advanced combat (Savannah-Ivanov and Phazon) mech designs for security, command and anyone else who is fighting the threat.

Delta

Either Central Command or station command has deemed the station lost and an evacuation is to be ordered if not already, the on-site nuclear warhead should be armed if the situation calls for it along with the shuttle to be launched early if under threat. Security are to work with keeping evacuations lounge secure whilst crew evacuate, anyone going against this effort is to be field executed.

Epsilon

Crew contracts have been nullified by Nanotrasen lawyers as the station has proven themselves to a threat to the integrity of the company or unfit to continue serving. Central Command personnel on-board are to be evacuated, such as the Nanotrasen representative and the blueshield. Other personnel should begin collecting their belongings and awaiting the human resource departments arrival to the station at the arrival lounge so de-briefing can begin.

Gamma

Something has gone wrong, Nanotrasen themselves have placed the station under this alert level and cannot stop what is to come, there is nothing anyone can do anymore about this, judgement time is upon the station, crew can attempt to hide, but it is of no use, it will only delay the inevitable.

• Prisoners are to be brought to the secure area of the escape shuttle, except for prisoners who pose a severe threat.
• AI units may be brought to Central Command on portable card devices (InteliCards) if structural failure is likely or AI units wish to leave.
• Mechs and Cyborg units are to be hauled to the escape shuttle for Central Command to inspect.
• Authorizing early shuttle launches is not allowed unless there is an immediate threat to shuttle integrity.

Fire and Other Environmental Hazards

• Immediate evacuation of all untrained personnel.

• Atmospheric Technicians and Station Engineers are to remove the hazard.
• Pump air back into the area when fixed.
• Ensure the damage is repaired.

Radiation Storm

• All crew to move to the maintenance tunnels or radiation shelters.
